In some companies, certain wage types are regularly entered delayed and paid one period late. Month-end accruals functionality can be set up to deal with the fact that expenses are often paid for accounting periods that differ from the accounting periods in which the expenses were actually incurred.

Example

Sometimes information about overtime comes from a different system and is only available after the pay period is finished. Entering the data results in a retrocalculation and a payment in the subsequent pay period.

In this step you define the employee modifier for the employee delay group and processing class as wage type modifier (wage type delay group). The combination of both of these triggers the delay.

Processing class 79 is used to group the wage types:

Value in Processing class 79        Meaning

0                                Do not take wage type into account

1                                Wage type is in Accrual group 1

2                                Wage type is in Accrual group 2

Modifier D is used to group employees:

MODIF D    Meaning

0    None with delay

1    Wage types of Accrual group 1 are regularly entered with delay

2    Wage types of Accrual group 2 are regularly entered with delay

3    Wage types of Accrual groups 1 & 2 are regularly entered with delay

Note

If you do not want to use this functionality, set the modifier D to 0 for all employees and then classify all the wage types that have to be taken into consideration for month-end accruals computations with 1.

Activities

  1. Determine how the modifier should be set for the employee delay group.
  2. Copy the standard personnel calculation rule UMOD to your own personnel calculation rule, for example ZMOD, or use the copy you created in an earlier step.
  3. Define the decision tree as required.
  4. Replace the call of personnel calculation rule UMOD in schema UT00 with the copy of the personnel calculation rule you just created (ZMOD in this example) or check at this stage that you made the changes in the copy which was created in an earlier step.
  5. Refine the values for wage types considered for month-end accruals by identifying in processing class 79 whether the wage type belongs to Accrual group 1 or Accrual group 2.

Recommendation

Carry out this step in direct consultation with the team responsible for setting up the payroll modifiers.

Further notes

Cost center assignment for estimates

  • When you post actuals, you post them to the cost center to which the wage types were originally connected.
  • When using actuals to estimate the future, amounts are posted to the the last cost center of this period.
  • In the case of wage types which are regularly entered delayed, the retrocalculation amounts of this period are distributed to the cost centers of this period with a ratio of the work days, calendar days or work hours as determined in the accruals basis modifier.
